Whenever we get to create something with our little hands and have it seen/tasted by Americans, we get to hear that sentence. It finally struck me when I brought a cake to work and at my physical therapist. Besides the general surprise (having a cake to celebrate Epiphany), it is the natural, even instinctive mindset that a good idea=money, which makes me smile and wonder. The American dream, you're born with it, and starting pre-school you can have your own business! The good thing about it though, it's that kind of spirit motivates, stimulates their minds and eventually creates something big. Facebook will not contribute to the world's peace but it is a social revolution in its own way. Of course, making an extra buck or two out of it won't hurt anyone, will it? In a general way, this spirit is rewarded and given much more consideration than in France or Europe in general. Innovation in various fields has decreased due to lack of consideration for young talent and entrepreneur spirit... And we can see it here with all the expatriates, which have been given a chance because they believe in them.
